Documentation

Recommend Azure VM sizes, scale sets, and configurations based on workload requirements and budget.

  • Analyzes workload type, performance needs, scaling requirements, and cost to suggest 2–3 VM or VMSS options with trade-offs
  • Verifies recommendations against live Microsoft documentation; falls back to reference files if fetch fails
  • Queries the unauthenticated Azure Retail Prices API for current pricing without requiring an Azure subscription
  • Guides VM vs VMSS decision through a decision tree covering autoscaling, instance count, availability, and statefulness
  • Covers all VM families (general purpose, compute/memory optimized, GPU, confidential computing) and VMSS orchestration modes (Flexible vs Uniform)
